Regen steering would buff every modern tank
Like the reload rate buffs
Yes the CR2 would turn faster but it would also make the Leopards and T-90s like go karts!

While it would buff all the tanks technically, tanks like challenger 2 and chieftain would benefit far more. Abrams, leopard and T series tanks recover quickly from slight turns and get the speed back quite fast under the current system due to their acceleration, challenger and chieftain dump a lot more speed in slight turns and take ages to get back up to top speed. If they could carry the momentum it would help them get on an even playing field in manoeuvres.
Leopards and T90s are already like go karts, they wouldn’t feel the same boost from it Challenger would.

There is no reason for the Challenger 2 to still have its awful 4 round ready rack, the 24 ready rack is both more realistic and would be better for balance
Its crazy they haven’t changed it yet

Yeah i thought that but didnt wanna claim.it incase i was wrong tbh.
There are so many unanswered bug reports on the british mbts.now adays its ridiculous.
And pathetic to be quite frank, the l15a5 round for example why is it not in game, why does l23 exist in game when it has been proven countless times to have never existed

I was just checking the TES armour package and got curious about the kinetic performance of the little area of spaced armour under the side ERA
it performs exactly the same against APDSFS as the 30CM thick ERA just above it, and only 300mm worse against ATGMs
Meanwhile the actual website for the people who MADE the exact ERA on the TES state “Highest weight efficiency to defeat Shaped Charge (SC) and Kinetic Energy (KE) threats.”

A good few people chinned gaijin about the ERA and made insanely well formulated bug reports that were shot down with almost no backup source for gaijin.
They were and are categorically wrong about so much on the challanger 2 series of tanks yet wont back down.
I direct you upwards and morvrans piece.
If you read all this, hes not even kidding at all about any of it, which is the sad part, the cr2s are statistically speaking the worst top tier mbt.
And generally verging on unplayable and im not kidding

Gaijin do not model NERA correctly :(
Even after it’s been explained to them, in excruciating detail, how wrong they are they still don’t listen. It’s like they’re allergic to admitting they’re wrong.

The percieved issue arise when NERA is modelled correctly yes it would greatly buff the CR2, Arriete. Leclerc and IFVS stupid enough to use the blocks.
It would also dramatically increase the protection of NATO tanks the Leopard 2 and M1 to “game breaking” levels. In Gaijins eyes crapping on a few smaller nations is worth it to maintain big 3(4) parity.
That is the only reason I can see for not having a complete NERA rework.

Well that’s what the BR system is supposed to be for, as flawed as it is. It is certainly no excuse for artificially nerfing an entire class of protection.

Agreed but accurate NERA would put the M1A2 SEP and Leopard 2A7 Turrets in the region of 1300mm KE and the hulls at 900mm KE nothing would be able to pen them.
Yes it sucks that Gaijin has adopted this approach :(

Its literally why its there.
Since maybe a year and a half? 2 years? ago they started nerfing vehiclese to suit the BR rather than increasing the BR to suit the vehicles, hence why you had so many things all stuffed into the same BR at top tier.
Hence why now the CR3 TD sits at 11.7 the same as the M1A2 which is objectively better in every way bar in sheer penetration values.
oh you dont even know the half of it lol, i got over pressured by the APIT round from a 50cal in my Cromwell, you should have heard me i was hysterical laughing because of how shocked i was.

I think that thing could one shot a fly if your aims good enough, might wanna check to see if they do salt shot for it otherwise you may have trouble explaining away the missing chunk from your house.
Western ERAs all underperform when Contact ERA will eat APFSDS. Ive shot a T90 flat on the side with L27 and the ERA ate the whole dart

its because gaijin have given russian era the stats when they are shot at at their most optimal angle, as era becomes more effective the higher the incidence they get hit at. Nato era on the otherhand just gets its flat value which creates these massive disparities in performance as well as making the side plates perform way too well for their angle. hitting a plate flat on would do little to deteriorate a long rod perpetrator but in game it would still take the 250mm of penetration as if it was hit at its nominal ~50 degrees… that along with gaijins idiotic take on stanag and we have our situation in game.

The whole thing with stanag was a F’ing joke to be quite honest.
They were presented with how many flipping sources and they absolutely went full denial of it.
Genuinely shocking behaviour, YET the L23 round exists in game which is completely fabricated.

Oh i do brother had an m247 kill me in the cr2E by overpresuring under me!!
It just gets stupid, had a 2s38 blow my cr2 up the other day through the new gap in tbe turret ring / breach…
They are quite close, if not there, to unplayable mate.
